<u>ANSWER</u>
The line that is parallel to through
is
.
<u>EXPLANATION</u>
The equation that is parallel to the line has a slope that is equal to the slope of this line.
By comparing this equation to the general slope intercept form,
,this line has slope
.
Hence the line parallel to this line also has slope .
Let be the equation of the line parallel to the line
We can substitute to obtain;
If the line passes through the point ,then this point must satisfy its equation.
We substitute and
to obtain;
We this equation for .
We substitute this value of in to
to get;
.
Hence the equation of the line that is parallel to through
is
.
